Critical analysis of the spin-rotation constants of CF2 and CCl2: A theoretical investigation

2005

Quantum chemical ab initio calculations for the spin-rotation constants of difluorocarbene (CF2) and dichlorocarbene (CCl2) were carried out using coupled-cluster techniques with sequences of correlation-consistent basis sets. Theoretical best estimates were obtained using extrapolation to the complete basis-set limit and taking into account corrections for core correlation, additional diffuse functions and zero-point vibrational effects. It is demonstrated that such accurate theoretical estimates can be used either to support or to challenge the analysis of the experimental spectra and the reliability of the resulting data. 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Periodic Groups Covered by Transitive Subgroups of Finitary Permutations or by Irreducible Subgroups of Finitary Transformations

1999

Let X be either the class of all transitive groups of finitary permutations, or the class of all periodic irreducible finitary linear groups. We show that almost primitive X-groups are countably recognizable, while totally imprimitive X-groups are in general not countably recognizable. In addition we derive a structure theorem for groups all of whose countable subsets are contained in totally imprimitive X-subgroups. It turns out that totally imprimitive p-groups in the class X are countably recognizable.

Weighted Extrapolation Techniques for Finite Difference Methods on Complex Domains with Cartesian Meshes

2016

The design of numerical boundary conditions in high order schemes is a challenging problem that has been tackled in different ways depending on the nature of the problem and the scheme used to solve it numerically. In this paper we propose a technique to extrapolate the information from the computational domain to ghost cells for schemes with structured Cartesian Meshes on complex domains. This technique is based on the application of Lagrange interpolation with weighted filters for the detection of discontinuities that permits a data dependent extrapolation, with high order at smooth regions and essentially non oscillatory properties near discontinuities. This paper is a sequel of Baeza et…

Some Questions of Heinrich on Ultrapowers of Locally Convex Spaces

1993

In this note we treat some open problems of Heinrich on ultrapowers of locally convex spaces. In section 1 we investigate the localization of bounded sets in the full ultrapower of a locally convex space, in particular the coincidence of the full and the bounded ultrapower, mainly concentrating in the case of (DF)-spaces. In section 2 we provide a partial answer to a question of Heinrich on commutativity of strict inductive limits and ultrapowers. In section 3 we analyze the relation between some natural candidates for the notion of superreflexivity in the setting of Frechet spaces. We give an example of a Frechet-Schwartz space which is not the projective limit of a sequence of superreflex…

On the hyperbolic limit points of groups acting on hyperbolic spaces

1998

We study the hyperbolic limit points of a groupG acting on a hyperbolic metric space, and consider the question of whether any attractive limit point corresponds to a unique repulsive limit point. In the special case whereG is a (non-elementary) finitely generated hyperbolic group acting on its Cayley graph, the answer is affirmative, and the resulting mapg +↦g −, is discontinuous everywhere on the hyperbolic boundary. We also provide a direct, combinatorial proof in the special case whereG is a (non-abelian) free group of finite type, by characterizing algebraically the hyperbolic ends ofG.

Generation of Bound States of Three Ultrashort Pulses With a Passively Mode-Locked High-Power Yb-Doped Double-Clad Fiber Laser

2004

We report the generation of high-power ultrashort bound states of three pulses in an ytterbium-doped double-clad fiber laser. The laser is mode-locked through nonlinear polarization rotation technique in a unidirectional cavity configuration. A pair of diffraction grating is incorporated in the cavity to compensate for the normal dispersion of the fiber. The laser generates chirped bound states of three pulses with either equal or different time separations, with more than 500-pJ energy per pulse. These pulses are subsequently compressed to 100 fs with a compression factor of more than 40.

Model Transformation Languages and Their Implementation by Bootstrapping Method

2008

In this paper a sequence of model transformation languages L0, L1, L2 is defined. The first language L0 is very simple, and for this language it is easy to build an efficient compiler to C++. The next language L1 is an extension of L0, and it contains powerful pattern definition facilities. The last language L2 is of sufficiently high level and can be used for implementation of traditional pattern-based high level model transformation languages, as well as for the development of model transformations directly. For languages L1 and L2 efficient compilers have been built using the bootstrapping method: L1 to L0 in L0, and L2 to L1 in L1. The results confirm the efficiency of model transformat…

Harmonic behavior of trehalose-coated carbon-monoxy-myoglobin at high temperature.

1999

Abstract Embedding biostructures in saccharide glasses protects them against extreme dehydration and/or exposure to very high temperature. Among the saccharides, trehalose appears to be the most effective bioprotectant. In this paper we report on the low-frequency dynamics of carbon monoxy myoglobin in an extremely dry trehalose glass measured by neutron spectroscopy. Under these conditions, the mean square displacements and the density of state function are those of a harmonic solid, up to room temperature, in contrast to D 2 O-hydrated myoglobin, in which a dynamical transition to a nonharmonic regime has been observed at ∼180K (Doster et al., 1989. Nature. 337:754–756). The protective ef…

Amphiphilic Copolymers Shuttle Drugs Across the Blood-Brain Barrier.

2015

Medical treatment of diseases of the central nervous system requires transport of drugs across the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Here, it is extended previously in vitro experiments with a model compound to show that the non-water-soluble and brain-impermeable drug domperidone (DOM) itself can be enriched in the brain by use of an amphiphilic copolymer as a carrier. This carrier consists of poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl)-methacrylamide), statistically copolymerized with 10 mol% hydrophobic lauryl methacrylate, into whose micellar aggregates DOM is noncovalently absorbed. As tested in a BBB model efficient transport of DOM across, the BBB is achievable over a wide range of formulations, containing 0.…
